Come to Daming with military supplies

Page 337



Ten days happened to be the confirmed date for Yang Chendong to hand over to Hong Jin.Because within ten days, basically Yang Chendong can make preparations before the battle. As for within such a short period of time, there will definitely be some Han people who cannot come here because they live too far away.

The night is long and the dream is full. If there is any other mistake because hundreds of thousands of Han people in one or two cities did not come, then Yang Chendong will never allow it to appear.

The ten days naturally made Ruan Chuncheng somewhat dissatisfied.But he also thought of it, it's just a matter of delaying it, try to send some people here within ten days, and there will be people coming after ten days, he can't believe that at that time, this brave man will really dare to go to war Can't you?

With their own plans, the two sides reached a temporary agreement, and Ruan Xuancheng wrote a personal letter and sent it to the prince in Hanoi.Then the fighting in Cochin gained a moment of peace.

Yunnan Pingxi Palace.

The Mu family, which is the closest to Cochin, has been planting its own intelligence personnel in Cochin Kingdom.They were the first to know about the news that Yang Chendong suddenly appeared outside Quyi City with mercenaries, captured there, and then sent troops out of Beidai City to occupy the city.

After hearing the news, Mu Bin asked someone to send the information to Nanming Emperor Zhu Qizhen, and then called Wang Ji, the right servant of the military department, to help him analyze the situation in front of him. .

Appearing with Wang Ji is Mu Ang, an outstanding son of the Mu family.

Mu Ang is only less than 30 years old, but he has been in the military for more than ten years.This son of the Mu family who entered the military camp in his teens was not only outstanding in martial arts, but also extremely brave when fighting. He became one of Mu Bin's most valued young people from the Mu family.

In the side hall of Xiping Prince's Mansion, these three people were seated at this moment.The reason why no one else was called was because the focus of their discussion was how the Mu family should make a decision in such a chaotic situation.

For important matters such as discussing the interests of the Mu family, it is natural that as few people know about it, the better.

Although Mu Ang was still young, he was extremely talkative and calm when encountering situations, so it was natural to call him here.

This is even more so for Wang Ji. People who have been abandoned by Emperor Yingzong now have to hug the thigh of the Mu family, and naturally think of what they do for the Mu family.Being able to almost become a minister of the Ministry of War, he naturally has good eyesight, and he was called to listen to his views on the current situation.

Xiping Wang Mubin was sitting between the two of them, quietly listening to their views without saying a word.

The three of them knew the news, and now it was time to express their views.The young Mu Ang was the first to speak. He took the information and read it carefully three times, then shook his head again and again, "This is unlikely, everyone knows how many mercenaries there are. , it is not easy to get out of the Lang Son rainforest with more than 1 people alive. How could they go to the interior of Jiaozhi and occupy two cities in a row? Are they forced to Hanoi city? Is this information out of the question? wrong?"

It's no wonder Mu Ang thinks this way.Because he can't do the same thing.Although he can be regarded as a warrior of the Mu family, not to mention giving him more than 1 soldiers, even if he was given [-], it is impossible for him to do things so beautifully.

"The news will never be false. This information has been corroborated." Mu Bin saw Wang Ji on the side also had an expression of disbelief, so he opened his mouth to confirm the authenticity first.As for the evidence he said, it is natural that another intelligence team also sent the same news.

For one thing, what one person said may be wrong, and one cannot believe it all, but when everyone says so, it is undeniable.

Originally Wang Ji also wanted to question this matter, but now he shut his mouth immediately after hearing Mu Bin's words.If he is doubting at this time, it is tantamount to doubting King Xiping. For him who has already offended Yingzong and sees nowhere to stand, if he does not hold Mu Bin's thigh tightly, it will be a big deal. The world is so big that there is no place for him.

As soon as Mu Bin said this, the hall became quiet again. It was obvious that everyone needed to digest the news.Then, after waiting for about a cup of tea, seeing that the faces of the two people around him had almost recovered, Mu Bin asked again, "Okay, now you can express whatever you think. There are only three of us here. Personally, you are allowed to speak nonsense."

The so-called nonsense is to say what you want, just say what you want when you get out of this room, and no one will be punished for it.

Now that he could think and say something, Wang Ji rolled his small eyes and said, "If all this is true, then the combat power of this mercenary is too powerful, and the ambition of this brave man is too strong." A bit too big."

"How do you say it?" Mu Bin felt that Wang Ji seemed to have something in his words.

Seeing that Mu Bin was interested, Wang Ji knew that the opportunity to express himself had come, so he was not polite at the moment, and said all the thoughts in his heart. "King Xiping, think about it, if this thing was really done by mercenaries, then how powerful they are. With such strength, why did the court ask him to deal with the yellow bandits? What about two months? With their tyrannical strength, just push it straight. I am afraid that after a few battles, the untrained and mob yellow bandit army will disperse and flee. Not only that, if he really To relieve the emperor's worries, if you want to do your best, you can come to quell the chaos in Yunnan after destroying the Yellow Bandit Army. At that time, King Min hadn't grown up yet? There is every chance to kill him in the land of Yunnan. What about the complicated situation now?"

In one breath, Wang Ji said a lot, revealing a fact faintly, that is, he always believed that the mercenaries did not fully exert their strength, but were hiding their clumsiness.

Then, under what circumstances would one deliberately conceal one's own strength?Is it because his plans are too big?

Or even think the other way around?Does the person have a purpose to see something happen, a sense of chaos to grow so that he can profit from it?

After all, when anyone has an invincible master in his hands, he hopes to have room to play.If not, wouldn't the jewelry be dusted?

It has to be said that Wang Ji's reasoning is still reasonable, and these words were also heard by Mu Bin, but they have already thought of this, and they haven't seen that Yang Chendong wants to destroy Jiaozhi, Yang Hanmin The prestige, the great goal of dominating the world.

For nothing else, their vision is still too narrow.Although he was considered to be in a high position, his eyes were always in the Ming Dynasty, and he was also in this environment.They were taught from childhood that the outside world is barbaric land, extremely desolate, and the center of the world is Daming, those places are poor, what use is there for them?

It was under such conservative thinking that Mu Bin then asked such a sentence, "So, Mr. Zhongdan deliberately hid his personal interests, but why did he do so? What's the use of hurting Cochin so hard? Do you really want to occupy that place? Although I have never been there, I have heard many people say that there are many small people there, and it is very poor."

Relying on Mu Bin's words, Wang Ji also said: "Of course I don't want to occupy that place, and there is no good in it. By doing this, Duke Zhongdan is nothing more than to show his strength, so that others will be afraid of him." , so as to achieve your goal.”

"Purpose, what purpose?" Mu Ang asked this time instead.

"Hehe." Wang Ji first smiled triumphantly, and then asked Mu Ang back: "General Mu, the old man came to ask you, after hearing about the tyranny of the mercenaries, if you lead the army to fight against him, what are the chances of winning? "

All of a sudden, Mu Ang, who seemed to be asked, blushed immediately.He really wanted to say that he wasn't afraid of mercenaries, but he couldn't do it himself when he thought of the methods they used to combat cochin.This kind of courage was still discouraged in a short period of time, so he had to shake his head and said: "If the two armies are really fighting each other, we are afraid that our Mu family will not be able to take advantage of it."

Listening to Mu Ang's unashamed answer, instead of being sarcastic, Wang Ji nodded, "Look, even the Mu family's army is not sure of victory, so how can it be Yingzong or King Min talking about the way to win?" What? This is equivalent to winning the victory in terms of momentum before fighting, so if you want to ask the emperor for something with this prestige, is there any reason not to agree?"

When it came to this point, Mu Bin sitting beside him finally seemed to have figured it out, "Master Wang, does Mr. Zhongdan also want to be king like this king?"

"There is indeed such a possibility. After all, we have received news before that this loyal and brave man is very persistent about the throne." Wang Ji nodded and said seriously.

Chapter 496 Kuang Ye's Analysis (Third Update)

"He also wants to be king? Why? How could the emperor agree to him easily." When Mu Ang heard this, he didn't take it seriously.The reason why the Mu family is so powerful now is because Mu Bin became the king, but if one person can become the king, then the title of the prince is no longer important, and it will not bring so much to the family. glory.

In Mu Ang's eyes, it is better that there are fewer and fewer kings in the world, so that the status of the prince will be more important, and when he speaks, he will have more confidence.

It's not just Mu Ang who thinks like this, Mu Bin also has this kind of thought, and he said, "If you want to be king, I'm afraid it won't be so easy. Will the emperor agree to him easily?"

"Of course not." Wang Ji replied in a very positive tone.Then, as if afraid that these two people would not believe it, he continued to say: "Prince, General Mu, think about it. Why the Mu family can be crowned king is because you have guarded the southwest for Daming for generations, plus your influence It's just big in this place. Even if he is crowned king, the emperor won't be so afraid. But the loyal and brave man is different, he is young, and his influence not only exists in Nanming, but also in Beiming If such a person is crowned king, wouldn't it be self-inflicted? What's more, if there is any war in the future, what kind of reward will the loyal and brave man make? Isn't it the king? Emperor?"

"Does this loyal and brave man still have the heart of disobedience?" Hearing this, Wang Mubin of Xiping couldn't help but asked with a face that changed again and again.

"Whether there is a heart of disobedience, no one knows. But once there is a slight possibility, we must take precautions. Presumably, on this point, Emperor Yingzong must have considered more than us and thoughtful , That's why the old man said that he is not a good king." Wang Ji's understanding of Yang Chendong is also limited, so he naturally dare not judge some things rashly.But based on his understanding of Zhu Qizhen, seeing him so wary of Yang Chendong, this inference is extremely reasonable.

After talking so much, Mu Bin and Mu Ang finally understood.The reason why Yang Chendong suppressed the Jiaozhi Kingdom was nothing more than taking the opportunity to show his military power and at the same time seek benefits from Zhu Qizhen, and the next step should be to see how the emperor decides.

After figuring this out, Mu Ang suddenly laughed, "If you say that this brave man is taking a roundabout route for his fame. I am afraid that to achieve this goal, he also paid a lot for entering the Jiaozhi Army this time." Bar."

It's no wonder Mu Ang said that, he also knew how powerful the Cochin Army was.Compared with Mu's army, although it is still a bit worse, it is not much different. The mercenary can defeat them, and it should be the kind that kills one thousand enemies and loses eight hundred.And the price paid for these is nothing more than a throne, and there is a high possibility that he will not get it. If this is the case, doesn't that mean that his efforts are not thankful?

But no matter what, this matter has nothing to do with the Mu Family Army. Whether it is the Cochin Army's heavy losses or the mercenaries' scars, they are all happy to see it succeed.

It seems that things have been cleared up, and everyone's previous worries disappeared.This had nothing to do with Mu's army in the first place, and no matter how powerful the mercenary army was, it was impossible for them to still trouble Mu's army after defeating the Jiaozhi army.Let's not say that you didn't have any conflicts before, but what's the benefit of fighting the Mu family army?

Even if there is no benefit, who would be willing to do it?

Knowing that the development of the war has nothing to do with him, Mu Bin's expression was completely relaxed, "Okay, let's send someone to keep an eye on this matter. As for what will happen? There must be someone better than us." More headaches."

Mu Bin was right.There is also the family of King Min who hold the same thing as him and give up on himself.They are now thinking about conquering the whole territory of Guangdong with all their strength.Because during this period of time, they sent troops around again and captured many cities in Guangxi that had not been recovered before. Now the whole of Guangxi is in their hands, which makes them naturally set their sights on the territory of Guangdong, especially An important place in Guangzhou Prefecture.

When Mu Bin said that someone would cause more headaches, he was referring to the Nanming court.Kuang Ye, Minister of the Ministry of War who received the news first, was indeed in a good mood at this moment.

When Yang Chendong sent his troops to leave Gaozhou Mansion and go straight to Lang Son, he also took Guan Ying, Ma Wei, Yu Guang and other generals withdrew from Gaozhou Mansion and detoured to Guangzhou Mansion.

After a lot of recruiting, coupled with the support of the court, the Guangzhou mansion soon gathered [-] Nanming soldiers, possessing a certain military strength.

But at this time, all kinds of news came from the front, some good and some bad.

The so-called bad thing is naturally that under the alliance of King Min and the Miao Army, they attacked everywhere and finally occupied the entire territory of Guangxi, allowing King Min's power to develop even more. There has even been news that they are gathering The army, I am afraid that the next target will be the Guangzhou government where they are located.After all, as long as this place is occupied, the entire territory of Guangdong will fall into the hands of the opponent, and it will not be far away.

For this reason, in addition to constantly strengthening the city defense and recruiting troops on the spot, Kuang Ye kept sending emergency documents to Nanjing, the capital, requesting more support from the imperial court.

In addition to the bad news, there was also good news, like the just-received Duke Zhongdan who led his mercenaries to the territory of Jiaozhi.They not only passed through the complex Langshan rainforest, but also captured the two cities of Quyi and Beidai in Cochin.
